better than madden
User Rating: 9.6 | NFL Street 2 PS2
This is one of my favorite games to pick up and play with friends or alone on weekends because when you get hooked on this game, you cannot stop playing it. This is one of the few games that you have to respect because of its vast song selection that includes rap and rock plus its humor and visual style. It has really cool load screens and pratically no load times. The most fun thing in this game though, is the create a player and team modes that offer hours upon hours of gameplay. You get really attached to the characters and that is why it is so fun. There is also just about every NFL team and a NFL legends team as well. I will reccomend any one of EA's "street" games because they push the sports genre further than monthly madden games.
